‘Blood, tears, chaos’: Gunman kills two in central Auckland
Auckland | At least two people and an armed attacker were killed and five others wounded in a shooting in New Zealand’s largest city of Auckland on Thursday, hours before the opening match of the women’s soccer World Cup in the city.
Prime Minister Chris Hipkins said the tournament would proceed as planned, adding that the shooting appeared to be the actions of an individual and that police were not seeking anyone else in relation to it.
